Clean Energy

At South Metropolitan TAFE, we’re shaping the next generation of skilled professionals to lead Western Australia’s clean energy transformation.

With a $200 billion investment pipeline and over 351,000 jobs expected by 2050, the clean energy sector offers enormous opportunities. From solar and wind to battery storage and energy efficiency, these technologies are driving a more sustainable, low-carbon future for our state.

Clean energy not only delivers environmental benefits, but also creates well-paid, secure careers across a wide range of trades and professions. Electricians, engineers, plumbers, refrigeration and air conditioning mechanics, motor mechanics, metal fitters, and machinists will all play vital roles in powering WA’s energy transition.

Our clean energy training provides practical, future-focused skills in renewable energy, sustainability, and emerging technologies. Our programs are designed to equip learners with the knowledge, hands-on experience, and industry connections they need to thrive in this fast-growing field.

Whether you’re just starting out or looking to upskill, clean energy training with us is your pathway to meaningful, future-ready employment and the chance to help shape a cleaner, stronger Western Australia.
